Redescription of
Haemogregarina garnhami (Apicomplexa: Adeleorina) from the blood of Psammophis schokari (Serpentes: Colubridae) as Hepatozoon garnhami n.
En Chelonoides denticulata solo se ha reportado Haemoproteus geochelonis (Lainson y Naiff, 1998), en tanto que en tortugas acuaticas de America del Sur se ha encontrado Haemogregarina sp en Podocnemis expansa (Nascimento, 2008) y Phrynops geoffroanus (De campos, 2002) y en otros lugares Haemogregarina chelandi en Emydura signata (Jakes et al., 2001), Haemogregarina balli en Emys orbicularis (Mihalca y Achelartei, 2002) y Haemogregarina fitzsimonsi en Stigmochelys pardalis (Cook et al., 2009).
El unico tipo de hemoparasitos que se encontro fue Haemogregarina sp, no hallandose la presencia de tripanosomas ni otros flagelados o filaroides.
No se encontro efecto significativo en relacion a las variables peso, hematocrito (Cuadro 1), sexo y parasitemia (Cuadro 2) con relacion a la presencia de Haemogregarina sp.

Intraerythrocytic gametocytes of an undetermined species of the protozoan genus Haemogregarina were found in the blood of all four turtle species (Table 1).
HP = Haemoproteus; PL = Plasmodium; HG =
Haemogregarina; LK = Leukocytozoon.
In Nigeria, according to the investigations carried out by Babero and Okpala (1962), Akinboade (1981), and Wekhe and Olayinka (1999), Eimeria oocysts were the most prevalent (68.7 %) protozoan parasites, followed by Plasmodium and
Haemogregarina species.
Prevalence and intensity of
Haemogregarina balli in three turtle species from Ontario, with observations on intraerythrocitic development.
Occurrence of
Haemogregarina bigemina (Protozoan: Apicomplexa) in Blennius pholis (Pisces: Blenniidae) along the Portuguese west coast.
Merogonic development of
Haemogregarina balli (Apicomplexa: Adeleina: Haemogregarinidae) in the leech Placobdella ornata (Glossiphoniidae), its transmission to a chelonian intermediate host and phylogenetic implications.
Mas de 300 especies han sido encontradas en cocodrilos clinicamente normales, incluyendo el
Haemogregarina crocodilinorum en aligatores americanos Aligator mississipiensis (Lloyd, 2003).
